From the Forno hut, follow the white-red and later white-blue markings eastwards to the Sella dell Forno. When the trail reaches the south ridge, it continues north on the summit route. The passage through the rocks was fitted with new steel chains in 2015. The panorama from the spacious summit is great, especially the view of the north face of Monte Disgrazia.

Monte del Forno

Turn-by-turn directions

From the southern corner of the Forno hut, first follow the white-red-white markings to the Sella del Forno and then continue along the white-blue-white markings towards the Passo del Muretto until they reach the southern ridge of the mountain.
Here the summit route branches off, keeping to the west of the ridge - the markings easily guide you on to the summit structure. The steep passage through the rocky gully is equipped with new, solid steel chains and leads shortly to the flatter summit slopes and over them to the summit. The descent follows the same route.Translated with DeepL
